I'm a desc. of Noah HAYDEN b. 25 Mar 1755 Morristown N.J.,d.Mercer Co.KY. I'm trying to figure out all of his children....I know that he was married twice [1] Mary ELLIOT] [2] Elizabeth GILPIN. I have these children listed for Noah : James Elliott, Nancy, Permilia/Pamela Elizabeth/Betsey...Noah Gilpin, Sally/Sarah, John W., James, Lemuel & Melinda But the big problem is several documents I have read from desc.'s of theirs and in the Hayden Family Magazine and other Hayden documents have mixed opinons on whose children were whose and if there was a James Elliott and a James? Hayden geneaolgist Elsie Carnes Davis wrote:[1]Mary Elliot, dau. of James had 3 children: James, Nancy and Pamelia, [2]nd wife Elizabeth Gilpin had Noah Jr., John W., Lemuel, Betsy Wickersham, Sally Wright, & Melinda Hamilton.... But in 1788, Noah contracted with [2]Elizabeth GILPIN to raise and take care of his 2 children and home.??? Were they James and Nancy?? Noah and Elizabeth didn't marry until 1804, but they had probably 4 children of their own by that time Pamela/Permelia, Elizabeth/Betsey, Noah Jr. and John W.b ca1804....some list another James b. after John W., then Lemuel and Melinda? If anyone has anything that would shed some light on this family and their children, I would very much like to hear from you. In Elizabeth's Will she names the following: my four sons, Noah, James, John and Lemuel Nancy Cary wife of Daniel Cary and Pamelia Cary wife of Ebenezer Cary to my daughters Betsey Wickersham, Sally Wright & Melinda Hamilton thank you, N.J.Skinner White in MI [email protected]
